Free books updated Apr 22, 2015

FREE BOOKS ARE LISTED every day in Amazon Wishlists as it seems to work the best for both lister and readers. The links are at the bottom of this post. (They are NOT affiliate links, i.e. using them does not have the potential to benefit me in any way. There *may be* some affiliate links partway down the page, but the free book lists are NOT)

The free books listed today have been found to be free in the USA as of this morning. As always, please double-check the price before you "Buy" your free books as prices can change without notice. Different countries may have differing pricing. Please see the tips on using the lists, in the bullet list below.

---------------------

The tab pages above under the header now list only some long-term free books. (Check the prices before "buying" them as they still could change without notice. They HAVE BEEN free for long periods. I don't have the time to check when authors may have removed them from their long-term-free status.)

If you "Like" Prep Utility Vehicle on Facebook I will let you know on those those days when all the non-fiction are done early in the day but the rest won't be done for quite a while, as an extra update. This way you can get the non-fic as soon as possible. See link at right to get Facebook updates.

----------------------------------------

Keep scrolling down for the free lists.

As I wrote in a special post, I spend 3-5 hours daily on finding free books for you, and since March 2013 have been doing this (100-125 hours per month) for almost nothing and can no longer justify this to my family.

These are affiliate links for interesting books chosen for their subject matter and/or many high reviews. THESE ARE NOT FREE, but some are amazing deals....Free lists are after these....

FICTION

STONE AGE and DESOLATION“Any day now we will be hit with a solar storm that will return us back to the Stone Age!"- Noted astrophysicist, Dr. Carrington Reid [CMEResearchInstitute.org]

All are unprepared for the apocalypse about to strike the Earth, one so great and unprecedented, it will bring humanity into a new Stone Age. The greatest solar event in history turned off the world's power and destroyed much of its technology. The sun's barrage continues today effectively bringing humanity back to a new Stone Age. This is a time of desolation, where every day is a desperate fight for survival. Food and water are disappearing, and many will kill to take these from you. - - - - - - - - - - - - - NON-FICTION

A STEP-BY-STEP, DON'T-OVERLOOK-ANYTHING WORKBOOK OF DIY PROJECTS THAT PREPARE HOME AND FAMILY FOR ANY LIFE-THREATENING CATASTROPHE

The preparation you make for a hurricane, earthquake or other short-term disaster will not keep you alive in the event of widespread social collapse caused by pandemic, failure of the grid or other long-term crises. Government pamphlets and other prepping books tell you how to hold out through an emergency until services are restored. This book teaches you how to survive when nothing returns to normal for weeks, months or even years, including:

•Practical water collection for drinking and hygiene•Storing, growing, hunting and foraging for food•First aid and medical treatments when there’s no doctor•Techniques and tactics for fortifying and defending your home•Community-building strategies for creating a new society

Some tips on using the free book lists BELOW:

If you're new here, first check all the long-term free books, which are listed in the tab pages above under the blog header. Continue with next tip below.

If you're not new but are back after missing a few days, click on a list link below, then use the sort fields to the right just above the first books on the list, to sort the list by price, low to high. The books that are free should be listed first. You can then go through them all and get all the ones you want that you missed while away. (Reason: as old timers here will remember, prices are subject to change without notice. I will only delete books from the lists as I have large windows of time to check that they're no longer free, which may not be often, hence the need to sort this way.)Then continue with next tips.

Afterwards, for daily visits, I recommend using the sort field to "Sort by: Date Added."(Using "Show: Unpurchased" may seem to make sense but the list might be showing you what *I* have not purchased, and not what *YOU* have not purchased.)

Now keep an eye on the date added, in the right-hand column, so you don't miss all the ones added that day.(The reason is that sometimes I will forget that I added a book the day before and add it again...you will recognize it and think that's the previous day's list and stop there, and miss some books. Also, sometimes I add books late in the day that you'd have missed.)

Keep in mind that Amazon sorting engines are not perfect. If you sort by price, low to high, some are mixed up. At least they were for me. Your mileage may vary.

Here are the links to the respective lists for free books. (These are not affiliate links and do not benefit me in any way.) Note re: Audible.com list of downloads. Audible is a branch of Amazon but the wishlists are very primitive compared to the Amazon ones, so it doesn't have option to share one's own wishlist, so instead I have made a list of links at the bottom of this post.

Check here daily for free books!

Please Note:

Free Kindle books posted are usually available for 24 hours, sometimes 48, and only occasionally longer.

In order to not miss the books during their free window, I recommend bookmarking the site and checking daily, if you're the sort to remember.

If you tend to forget, subscribing will notify you of new posts. There are three ways to subscribe that I know of. All three are available on the right-hand column:

1. Using your email address. Blog readers have reported notification emails may arrive as late as the following morning, which is highly unsatisfactory for the purposes of getting these limited-time freebies.

2. Using the reader of your choice. When I tested Google Reader, it took at least an hour. Feedback on other readers welcome.

3. "Liking" Prep Utility Vehicle on Facebook. This option will give the most immediate notification (if you spend time on Facebook).

****Please double check the price before you click "Buy" for two reasons: 1. Different countries have different availability depending on how the publisher set up the book, and 2. The 24 or 48 hours of "free-ness" start at different times of day and so can go back to regular price rather suddenly too.
